I am looking to wire up two prosport oil pressure and coolant temp sensors. I plan on getting one of the fuse box taps that plugs into the fuse box. Would I be ok, wiring the one gauge to the other and having them both run off the same fuse taP? I know these gauges won't have a large current draw so I would imagine it would be ok, just wanting to double check before I do. Also what fuse would you recommend, 10 amp-5 amp?
 
You can run them together.
My triple pillar is run off one power source.

For the fuse..I'd rock a 10 and call it a day, if it shorts it will blow.
I would put the fuse closer to the battery for easy access.
 
I used one fuse tap, and its tied into a power block. I run my wideband, gauges, and boost controller all of that power strip. Through the years I've gotten pretty good at wiring , I've found that a soldering iron and heat shrink wrap are worth their weight in gold.
 
My prosports have a piggy back cae allowing one power source to daisy chain them. All you need is to run sending units properly after that. Double check yours as its a nice feauture to have.
